 DS> Has it affected their ability to keep a seal?

Yes, it has.  Since it is a crack, it causes them to be no longer
airtight.  It is only the rectangular ones that are so affected.  The
round ones are more domed, and the vent seal is different.  They haven't
cracked, but the perimeter seal is looser than the rectangular ones.

I remember having cakes like this one when we were stationed in Germany.


MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.04

      Title: Haselnusstorte (Hazelnut Torte)
 Categories: Ethnic, Cakes, Desserts
      Yield: 8 servings

      5 ea Eggs; large, separated
    3/4 c  Sugar
      6 tb ;water
  1 3/4 c  Cake flour; sifted
      1 ts Baking powder
  1 1/2 c  Hazelnuts (filberts);ground*
      1 ts Vanilla extract
      2 tb Confectioners' sugar
      1 c  Cream; heavy, whipped
      1 x  Fresh strawberries,if desire

  Beat the egg yolks and sugar until very light, about 5 minutes.
  Slowly add the water.  Sift the flour and baking powder together. Mix
  with 1 cup of nuts.  Fold the flour mixture into the egg yolks. Beat
  the egg whites until soft peaks form.  Gently fold the beaten whites
  into the batter. Pour into a greased and floured 10-inch springform
  pan. Bake at 375 degrees F for 30 minutes or until cake is done. Cool
  cake on a wire rack. When completely cooled, split the cake into 2
  layers. Fold the vanilla, confectioners' sugar, and remaining 1/2 cup
  of nuts into the whipped cream. Spread whipped cream between the 2
  cake layers and on top of the cake. Chill until serving time. Garnish
  with fresh strawberries, if desired. * Hazelnuts are available at
  most stores under the name of Filberts. They should be blanched.  To
  blanch, boil the nuts for 5 minutes and when they are cool enough to
  handle, remove the skins. To grind, place about 1/4 cup at a time in
  a blender, or chop as finely as you can with a sharp knife.

MMMMM
